CAROL BURNETT SHOW, THE: THE BEST OF TIM CONWAY

THE BEST OF TIM CONWAY REVIEWED

“The Best of Tim Conway” is two and a half hours of Tim Conway making his castmates laugh. Given how long Conway was on the show as a guest and cast regular, you couldn’t possibly squeeze every moment onto a single disc. That being said, the highlights are plentiful and boast a variety of guest stars. Your parents’ favorite sketch “The Dentist” gets its limelight. I wish that we got more special features than a blooper reel. Conway is a surviving cast member and I haven’t seen him work since that “30 Rock” guest spot. If you’re a fan, pick it up.

During his frequent guest appearances on The Carol Burnett Show, Tim Conway, who had originally gotten his start on McHale’s Navy, was a one-man wrecking crew capable of leveling the audience and cast members alike with the slightest gesture. With his unparalleled gift for improvisation and physical comedy, Conway became a permanent part of the cast in 1975 and would go on to create a gallery of oddball characters that blossomed in their own bumbling ineptitude, from the “Oldest Man” to the irascible boss, Mr. Tudball.

THE 50th ANNIVERSARY OF THE CAROL BURNETT SHOW: THE BEST OF TIM CONWAY celebrates this matchless, legendary comic with four complete episodes – three not seen in more than 40 years – featuring some of his most unforgettable characters and moments.

COMICAL HIGHLIGHTS:

Conway’s “Oldest Man” gives himself a slo-mo oil change playing the default head of a racetrack pit crew.
In “The Virgin Prince,” he’s a “swishbuckling” tour de farce with an appetite for flies and destruction.
Conway plays “The Lone Ranger” and acts like man’s best friend in “Dog’s Life” (blooper included!).
The legendary Conway/Korman sketch, “The Dentist”— one of the all-time-great moments of physical comedy.
Conway stars as Mr. Tudball, well-known for his strange accent and regimented work style, who takes leave of his senses while showing compassion for his dimwitted secretary, Mrs. Wiggins (Carol Burnett).
